July is UV Safety Awareness Month! Did you know that direct and prolonged indirect exposure from the sun can be just as damaging to your eyes as it can be to your skin? ☀️
Photokeratitis, also known as sunburned eyes, is a painful condition caused by overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation that is essentially a sunburn of the clear outer layer of the eye and the membrane covering the white of the eye and inside of the eyelids. Yikes!
Our doctors prescribe specific filters to help you best protect your precious sense of vision including:
🕶️ UV-A and UV-B to help prevent macular degeneration and to slow the progression of cataracts as you age
🕶️ Polarization to reduce blinding glare to keep you safe and comfortable
🕶️ High energy visible (HEV - otherwise known as a blue light filter) which decreases eye strain and also lowers your risk for macular degeneration
Because sunglasses are not regulated, it’s important to note that not all sunglasses are created equally. According to a survey conducted by the American Optometric Association, 47% of consumers do not check UV protection levels before purchasing sunglasses.
We care about your eye health, so follow the link below to schedule your comprehensive exam today and let our team of experts help you find a stylish, protective pair of sunglasses this summer!

Each year, The Mountain Xpress hosts a community-wide contest where residents vote for the ‘BEST OF’ businesses in all of Western North Carolina. Eyecare became a new category in the year 2011 and it was the first year Envision Eyecare won their place in the hearts of the locals in Asheville, NC. Since then, Envision Eyecare has won in this category each and every year. Thank you to all of our patients and community for your continued support.
The Biltmore Beacon, the weekly community newspaper serving the the Biltmore communities of Asheville, in cooperation with the Young Professionals of the Asheville Chamber of Commerce each year proudly host its annual 40 Under Forty Leadership Awards Banquet in September.
